So grateful for all the knowledge, the environment created, and kindness of the host. Would love to come back and help the sea turtle conservation project another time of year.

I loved my time at the eco village! The food was delicious and the nature in Drake Bay was breathtaking. It's only about a 10 minute walk to the beach, which was always pretty much empty. I met so many cool people from all over the world and learned so much. I would definitely recommend coming!

Rob and Rebe were incredible hosts. Rob has a wealth of knowledge on all things sustainability, organic farming, birding, DJing, soap making, and so much more. Rebe is a lovely vegetarian chef and beautiful presence who is always smiling. the eco village is a magical haven for not only volunteers, but also for the Earth. I am so honored to have been there and experienced all the Finca has to offer.

This is my second time visiting the eco village. I visited once in September of 2023 and then decided to come back during my school break this time. I really love coming here and who I become when I am there. I love the experience, the people, the food, and especially the community that Rob and Rebe have cultivated in their home. Traveling alone abroad can be scary but this place made me feel grounded and safe. I really recommend coming here, it's an amazing way to travel with purpose. I can't wait for the next time I get to visit!

​My time at the eco village was truly transformative!! Rob and Rebe are exceptional hosts, ensuring volunteers are comfortable and having a postive experience. Rebe's three daily vegetarian meals were SO delicious and healthy. Rob expertly managed logistics and shared his extensive knowledge of environmental science and turtle conservation. The immersive activities and vibrant community left a lasting impact on me. I highly recommend this experience to anyone seeking cultural immersion, sustainability education, and adventure. I look forward to returning!

This was such a wonderfully cozy wild experience. I can't imagine another place in the world that is so truly jungle while also catering to a comfortable and beautiful experience!

I absolutely loved my stay at the Finca. Rob, Rebe and Anna are such wonderful hosts. It is clear to see how passionate Rob is about turtle conservation and sustainability efforts, which creates a super fun learning environment. Rebe is a fantastic chef, all of the meals we enjoyed were super delicious and clearly made with love (she would also point out the ingredients in the meal that came from the garden, which was nice). The volunteer work wasn't too intense, though it was rewarding. I'd absolutely stay here again. The beach is a 5 minute walk and we ended every day watching the sunset 🫶
